What pian medications should you take for a inflammed rotator cuff?

Hey! I hope you're feeling better It is recommended that you avoid intense activity until you have fully recovered, and consume NSAIDs (ie. Ibuprofen and naproxen) to speed up the recovery process. You are also encouraged to apply cold packs to your shoulder for around 3-4 times a day. There is not much pain medication to consume, unless you do not mind being injected with steroids, which is injected into the tendon to reduce inflammation (Only advised if the pain is severe, and that you consult a doctor). I do, however, recommend that you consult a physical therapist. Cheers!
